U+7303 "猃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7303 "猃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that historically refers to a type of short-muzzled dog, often associated with ancient canine breeds known for their fierce or hunting nature. In classical texts, it appears as the second component in the term "猃狁" (Xiǎn yǔn), which denotes a nomadic group from northern China during the Zhou dynasty, sometimes equated with the Xiongnu or other steppe peoples. Its traditional radical is 犭 (dog) with the phonetic component 佥, and it carries connotations of both a literal animal and a metaphorical descriptor for ancient adversaries in Chinese historical records.
